The Crookston Journal says of the recent action of the Crookston oity council, the result of which the Journal believes postpones the mov- ing of the Crookston Lumber comp- any’s sawmill from that city te Bemidji: “The action taken by the city council last evening in passing a resolution to extend the water mains to the plant of the Crookston Lumber Co.,will meet with the most hearty approval of the people of Crookston. The saw mill is the most important industry located at Crookston by several hundred per cent. Should it be destroyed by fire it would never be rebuilt, as the company would locate any new mill constructed nearer to its timber holdings. “The necessity for better fire pro- tection at the mill, not primarily be- cause the company was clearly entitled to it, but from the purely business motives of protecting an industry that brings hundreds of thousands of dollars into the pockets of the people of Crookston has strongly appealed to those who can see an inch beyond their nose, and if Alderman Leahy never does another thing while a member of that body he will retire with a- good record for the active part he took last evening in urging the passage of the resolution as a sane measure.” Of late, the! Crookston company has been contending with a great hinderance in driving its logs down the Red Lake river to Crookston on account of the low stage of water, and it is feared that the mill there would be closed down. Judging from the following, taken from the Crookston Journal, water has been secured by opening a dam, averting a close-down: “For several days the officials of the Crookston Lumber Co., feared that the mill would have to be closed down at this point owing to the lekk in the dam which caused the river to fall over eight feet, For the last two or three days four men in the employ of the company have been engaged in directing a powerful stream of water from the company’s private system, in to the river ata point where the logs are taken into the mill. The purpose in doing this was to create a channel deep enough for the logs to be floated to the mill. “In order to further meet the emer- gency of the situation the lumber company has ordered its large dam at St. Hilaire to be opened. This has resulted in an appreciable rise in the river in the last twenty-four hours. In conversation witha Jour- nal representative yesterday one of officials of the lumber company stated that the mill will not be closed down but that it will continue in operation until the close of the sea son.” Filing Fee Doubled. Stillwater, Aug. 19.—In accepting the filings of two candidates for judge of the municipal court County Auditor Nelson discovered that the fee for candidates for all minor officers has been doubled. He call- ed up the attorney general, who, up- on investigation, confirmed this dis- covery. In amending chapter 226 of the laws, the legislature last winter in- tended that candidates for the legis- lature should not pay more than $10 at the primaries, and by some bungle the law was amended so as to require candidates other than for the legislature to pay $20. The pro- vision is in House File No. 9201. *‘Green-Eyed” Jealousy. This is’the time when you may expect to see a picture of “the home team” in your big daily when you open in search of the novel and the far-famed. Of our neighbors, Red Lake Falls and Bemidji have been thus honored in recent week. This posing of an amateur team for its picture is no light task and the mem- bers generally look as if they appre- ciated the gravityof the occasion. The group must bear a look of studied indifference and all the bats and balls, masks,mits, gloves, protectors, and other paraphernalia that belong to the team must be gathered in the foreground where they cannot be over-looked, or else they should be held by the players with the care- Luw.ces, Ribbons, E mbroidery feta and Plaids. up to 75c, a - R now . wia Fesnre w are Some low prlces on our extensive line of skirts in latest advanced fall styles in Panama, Voile, Serge, Mohair, Taf- Skirts One Iot worth up to $5 75, Saturday your choice W aists One lot WhltF and colored, all this season’s style, e siecmia sisieis mcwies $ie R One lot beautlfully trimmed Belts One lot worth to 35¢ $5 19 worth 390 20 per cent off on all our magnlflcont lme of waist, China Silk, Taffeta, Lace, Crepe Dechane, Lawn 20 per cent dlscnunt on every article in our store. great opportunity.

The Crookston Times of yester- day contained the following concern- ing the career of “Kid” Cutler, who is well known ii Bemidji and vicinity: “John L. Sullivan’s dope has gone wrong again and this time a Minne- sota pugilist is the one to figure in the set back. Old John L. has been touring the country for the past year or two with “Kid” Cutler, a gopher state youth, as his sparring partner. The old gladiator predicted great things for Cutler when he was here a year ago and according to the dope the Minnesota boxer would be a world’s champion in a year’s time. “Every thing was panning out well for Cutler and ~ he succeeded in putting several “ham” fatters out of the way at various stopping places, but his finish came last Friday night at New York, when he met Jimmy Barry of Chicago. Barry is a clever man, although not in a class with top notchers, and it took him just nine rounds to stop Sullivan’s protege. According to reports, Cut- ler was sailing along at a rapid pace, making a hit with the spectators, when Barry inpped a hard right- hand upper cut over on his jaw and it was all over, byt John L.’s excuse for Cutler’s defeat. “Cutler will be remembered by many Crookston people. He was in this city last fall for several weeks. It was just at the time of the many robberies in' this vicinity, and the Crookston police had Cutler under arrest here at one time asa sus- picious character, but he proved his identity and proved that he was not connected with any of the robberies. He is a splendidly built fellow but a trifle slow.” Detroit and Return $12.00 Via the South Shore; tickets on sale leaving Duluth, September 8th, 11th, 15th and 20th, connecting at St. Ignac_e with the elegant steamers of the D. & C.

Blakeley, the Farley logger, came in last night from Cass Lake, where he had been on a business trip. Mr. Blakeley states that his boat, the “Zelah May,” has about com- pleted the work of towing a big bunch of logs'from the mouth of the Turtle river to the 'Neils mill, on Cass lake. There were 4,500,000 feet of logs in the drive, and most of the timber was cut north of Cass lake and east of Tenstrike. The J. Neils Lumber company has ‘a large drive of logs at the mouth of the Turtle, and it is possible that the “Zelah-May” will be used in towing this drive to the mill. Always Welcome, Brother.
